Malang Tak Berbau

Tengahari tadi, I was on my way to fetch the twins from school...

There is this 3-junction I have to cross...mmg tak suka junction ni sbb it's at a corner then kat situ ada kedai nasi ayam dan selalu byk lori2 park near the junction, thus susah nak tgk kenderaan yg dtg dari kiri. Peak hours, jalan ni byk kereta. Selalunya I try to avoid this juction dan sanggup drive jauh2 another route supaya tak payah cross kat situ.

But then tadi dah lambat so guna jugak la junction tu. Mmg ada lori besar parked by the road side near the junction but I was sure I dah tgk betul2 before crossing.

Sekali BAMMMM!!!

Saya sudah langgar kereta org :(. Obviously my fault.

Dua2 kereta ketepi, I quickly bagi signal ketepi dan keluar dari kereta.

It was a lady, in Honda car. She also came out dan ckp "x nak nampak ke?" tapi dalam nada yg terkejut, bukan marah2.

I apologized profusely. Menggigil2 jugak rasanya and I guess that lady too. 

Disebabkan tempat kami berhenti tak sesuai utk berhenti lama2, saya pon tanya dia rushing ke sbb saya nak pegi jemput anak dari sekolah dan kalau dia x rush boleh tak ikut sy ke sekolah so that boleh discuss lebih lanjut.

Dia pon kata ok, sekolah pon x jauh dari kawasan kejadian. Then sy parked somewhere safe dan dia pon parked belakang kereta. Saya minta maaf lagi sekali sbb tau whatever it is tetap salah saya. Saya tak boleh salahkan lori itu walaupun saya geram kat lori yg parked tepi jalan dekat junction tu. 

Her car damaged at the driver seat's door. Kemik dan tercalar. Saya kata sy akan tanggung whatever the cost would be to repair it. Saya bagi no phone, alamat rumah, even nama company sbb dia agaknya doubt saya nak bayar for the damage. Anyway she seemed to be a nice lady sbb dia x marah2 pon kat saya. Cuma  nampak la dia dalam keadaan terkejut. I was shaking while key-in her number so I told her "sorry, I am slow, I am shaking". Dia kata dia pon sama.

After I took photo of her car, given all my contact details, and she said she would take her car to workshop and would tell me how much is the cost, we shook hand and again I apologized for my mistake and for putting her in trouble. Then I gi cari kembar kat depan sekolah and drove away.

Ni la kereta tu...agak2 berapa ratus la kena nak repair ni?

My car no obvious damaged, x kemik 

whatsover tapi nampak la cat tertanggal

Fikiran agak terganggu selepas kejadian ni, but thankfully I managed to stay calm. I only called cik HB selepas drop budak2 kat rumah (diorg duduk kat rumah hari ni sbb Mak Tam ada kat rumah). Sebab saya tak nak diorg dgr kalau sy call cik HB while they were around. Nanti diorg pulak terlebih drama.

Syukur juga it was just a minor accident with little damage and nobody hurts. Syukur juga that lady is the kind of person yg bertimbang rasa, meaning dia xde la marah2 saya, atau maki hamun saya. Kalau kena ngan org yg panas baran, mengamuk kat saya ke, sure lagi terganggu perasaan kan? Walaupun saya kena fork out few hundreds (harap2 tak jadi ribu2 la) to pay for the repair works, as along as I could settle this dengan cara yg baik, xpe la soal duit tu.

Probably I've done something wrong, so maybe this is a gentle reminder from Allah s.w.t to look back what I did.

Somehow trauma la jugak nak cross junction tu....

Oh, peringatan to all road users, tolong la jgn parking kenderaan anda dekat ngan simpang, seriously ia menyusahkan org lain.
